| 70 | 89 | |
| 71 | 90 | * Check your browser's javascript console to see if there are any errors that may be causing this issue. |
| 72 | 91 | * Make sure that your WordPress theme is not including multiple versions of jQuery and is using the latest version. |

| 96 | += 3. Does the plugin support third-party page builders like "Elementor", "WPBakery", "Divi", etc.? = | |
| 97 | + | |
| 98 | +Yes, the plugin is fully compatible with popular page builders like Elementor, WPBakery, Divi, and more. | |
| 99 | + | |
| 100 | +* For **Elementor**, the plugin provides a dedicated WordPress widget. You can find it under the "WordPress" tab in the Elementor editor. Simply drag and drop the widget into your design to embed your video gallery seamlessly. | |
| 101 | +* Alternatively, for **Elementor** and other page builders, you can use the plugin's **Shortcode Builder** to generate a shortcode. Once created, you can add the shortcode to any section or module of your favorite page builder. | |
| 102 | + | |
